Free Italy (Italia Libera, IL) was a liberal political party in Italy, led by Isabella Bertolini.

It was founded on 22 November 2012 by a group of splinters from The People of Freedom (PdL), all members of the Chamber of Deputies: Isabella Bertolini, Gaetano Pecorella, Giorgio Stracquadanio (who had left earlier), Franco Stradella and Roberto Tortoli.[1][2] According to Bertolini, the reason for the split was the attitude of the PdL towards the Monti government, as the party approved all government measures but at the same time bitterly contested them in public communication.[3]

In December 2012 IL joined forces with the Liberals for Italy, another splinter group from the PdL, and formed a 10-strong section within the Mixed Group.[4]
